Verse 1
We feel a desperation rise from the trees
We’re keeping our hearts so ever close
Is this the generation left on the brink
Or will we find a way to stay composed
Pre-Chorus
All we want is a call on the way
All we want is a spot on the stage
Hook
Stand by telephone
Break the open dial tone
A just to make it
To feel so awakened
To look past persuasions
To feel we can brave it, all in this world
Verse 2
Needing more than paychecks to fall asleep
Have we found a purpose we can hold
Taking occupations with no belief
Money doesn’t mean there is control
Pre-Chorus
All we want is a call on the way
All we want is a spot on the stage
Hook
Stand by telephone
Break the open dial tone
A just to make it
To feel so awakened
To look past persuasions
To feel we can brave it, all in this world
Stand by telephone
Break the open dial tone
A just to make it
To feel so awakened
To look past persuasions
To feel we can brave it, all in this world
Outro
Don’t leave the wires all tangled
Don’t let your telephone down
Don’t leave your wires all tangled
Don’t let the poles touch the ground
